"Debates" by CNN or other networks are not to be taken seriously.
It's bread and circuses.

That PP vid was a lie made up to discredit the organization. Many states that demanded investigations have already come back saying PP broke no laws. The mods really need to stop allowing these lies to continue. But then again the press as forgotten that its job is to report the truth and rebuke lies. That's the reason the gop is gone nuts spouting the craziest crap. No one in the press as the guts to tell them the truth, they just repeat the lie.


Now I feel icky like I need a shower after ten mins of this so called debate. Too much crazy.

I hung with CNN's post debate coverage a while because they included "fact checking" in their announced agenda. If they ever had any fact checking, I missed it.

There were misstatements about the Iran treaty, Planned Parenthood, the Iraq war - - I should have been writing them down. I switched over toe MSNBC and Chris Mathews didn't seem to get to any fact checking either.

So I came to DU! I was sure I'd find some here!

the War on Iraq. . . . NO critical, investigative journalism, no difficult questions, no objective facts. . . . Just a bunch of horse shit. They all may as well get jobs as stenographers.

because then they'd get called "liberal" for the zillionth time (even though we all know they're far from that label). It came as no surprise to me that they lied about PP as well as Hillary and Pres. O, and got away with it. If CNN was truly a respectable network, one of the moderators would've did something such as asking them why they're running against Obama even though he can't run anymore, or about Jeb's lie about his brother keeping us safe (never mind 9/11), or the lie about Hillary having no record. I went into this debate expecting a ton of red meat and BS, and expecting CNN to let all of it slide.
